Mash the unsalted lor cheese with a fork for 3 minutes until smooth and aerated.
Add the eggs, semolina, flour, and baking soda to the cheese and knead a soft dough.
Rest the dough for 20 minutes.
Pull off large pieces of dough and arrange them on a lined tray.
Bake the sweets at 180°C for 35 minutes, until browned.
Boil the granulated sugar, water, and lemon juice for 12 minutes.
Transfer the baked sweets into the syrup pot and simmer for 15 minutes over low heat, turning them.
Serve with tahini, kaymak, and chopped hazelnuts.
💡 Tip: Piercing the baked sweets before syruping lets the syrup soak evenly into the cheese-rich center.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve warm with tahini, kaymak, and chopped hazelnuts.
